The Speed Grapher series is one that’s never achieved a lot of attention overall in the North American market and it last saw release as a $30 SAVE set from FUNimation about two years ago. But now EMP.de is bringing out the series in a collector’s edition Blu-ray and DVD release for the German market. Set to arrive on February 26th, 2016, the Blu-ray is priced at 72.99 euro and will contain the entire series. It’s being done across four Blu-ray discs. No extras are detailed with the release at this time.

Plot concept: It’s been over a decade since the Bubble War, when the global economy burst. The rich got richer, and the poor were out of luck. Welcome to Tokyo, the city where all the winners came to jerk each other off. If you’ve got money, you can buy anything your sick mind can dream up. If you don’t, you just try not to get crushed beneath the wheels. Only the wicked rule here.
Enter the Club, a secret society pandering to the ultra-rich and fulfilling their deepest desires… legal or otherwise. Sent to infiltrate the underground elite, Saiga, once a renowned war photographer now reduced to tabloid journalism, stumbles upon a depraved ceremony and discovers the ultimate beauty in Tokyo’s darkest catacombs. With a tragic young girl named Kagura in tow, Saiga flees from his enemies and his own inner demons. A single kiss has ignited a chain of events that could force the entire ruling class to their knees.
Smile for the camera… or perish in the glare of its lens.
